Manager Reveals Plan

DIGEST

HALLANDALE — City Manager R. J. Intindola on Friday recommend holding the line on property taxes for the coming year.

He suggested the City Commission set the tax rate for the year beginning Oct. 1 at $6.90 per $1,000 of assessed value, the current rate.

Intindola proposed small increases in garbage, water, stormwater and sewer rates, including 85 cents a month for garbage and 90 cents a month for sewers. Intindola's proposed $20.8 million budget for general expenses is $700,000 less than the current year's $21.5 million, a 3.3 percent drop.

Commissioners will set tentative tax rates on Tuesday, review Intindola's figures the following week and hold public hearings on two evenings in September, with dates to be set next week.
